Just start yelling at me and I’ll probably shut down and cry.

Wait out my timer or go around me.

Ask me about something I’m above average knowledged about that I’m also interested in, and the can disarm the bomb, save the pricess, destroy my entire species before I’m done oversharing the introductory part or even its preface.

Blow some cannabis smoke in my face and point me in the direction of a comfortable chair. Now it’s a chill hangout session, not a boss fight. But you still win.

Completion reward: let’s share some pretzels

Intended method: three phase fight where the PC must break a magic shield before I get off a spell (DPS check). Breaking the shield releases a shockwave which either needs to be dodged or cancelled by an optional item (magic earmuffs). Failure to break the shield fails the fight, sends them to the room before (fuck you watch the whole cutscenes again)

Pacifist method: compliment me a couple of times and I won’t know what to do with myself. I teleport away, leaving the key

Attack at dawn.

Subtly undermine my self-confidence.

Takes away my coffee

Steady, unrelenting emotional abuse.

Probably shooting the chips from cutting a log with a chainsaw at my face. That’s gotten be at some point painful and extremely annoying.

Cheese.

Either the edible kind or the repetitive-bullshit-but-it-works kind.

Laugh at me and say I’m stupid.

I’m gonna say donuts

They’d probably handle me the same way as the fish boss in Earthworm Jim. Just one smack to the face and I’m done. That’s all it takes.
